THE Louisville Courier. Journal saws:

The government has great confidence
in the integrity of the Washington correspon.
dent or II would not let him go down among
stacks of coins and notes in the treasury vaults,
accompanied perhaps, by only one guard. It
is likely, however, that only Democratic cor
respondents are thus trusted. The correspon-
dent ofa violent Republican sheet might not
be able to overcome the temptation 10 load his
pistol pocket with standard dollars.
The COurier-JoWndl seems to forget
that the Republican party was In power
twenty-four years and had charge OF the
vaults, and that during that time it handled
more money than the Democrats have
during the entire existence OF the govern =
ment. Out of $2l $3.50, 900, 900 gross receipts
from March 4, 1889, to March 4, 1885, the Re-
publicans received and paid out In "a years
over $l7, 600, ,000, ,000-that ia, over four-fifths
of the entire amount. The money was all
accounted for when they went out of office.
The Democrats may not be able to do this If
the statement In the COurier-JOwna is
correct.

The President MT st Louis.

President Cleveland has experienced the
hospitality Of one Of the great cities Of the
Mississippi Valley, and now knows that 1t
is as poundless as the great prairies, which
border 1t, as exuberant as the wonderful
and varied productions Of the valley, AMI
as honest and hearty as ever came from
honest hearty men.
There is nothing POLITICAL and not much
that is personal in these demonstrations
They are the trltute OF respect from the
people to the high Office which Grover
Cleveland fills. OF course this respect ex-
tends beyond the office to the man, and the
demonstrations In this instance are strength
ened because of the presence of Mrs. Cleve.
land, lady who has won for herself very
high esteem.
President Cleveland and his wife have
been royalty entertained by the hospitable
Missourians. They will lnd the same
generous entertainment, the same hospital
ity In all their tour through the west aud
south, and the President will return to his
official duties with Ideas enlarged by per-
sonal observation of the greatness OF the
country over which his destiny has called
him to preside as chief executive, and If the
western people are as frank as the occasion
demands they will tell the President that

Old Paralta Land ClnIm.

Commissioner Sparks, of the general land
Office, has received from the surveyor gen
eral OF Arizona report OF his action on the
application made to bis office for a preiml-
nary survey of the old Paralta private land
claim In that territory, which embraces
about 100000 acres. The surveyor general
declines to entertain the application, for the
reason that Congress has withheld from his
office the usual appropriation for the inyes
tigation OF private land claims, and as an
investigation would be necessary In this
case the application Ia denied THIS claim
is the same which Commissioner Sparks dis
cussed at length in hiS annual report of 1885,
and in which, 1t is believed by the commits
sioner, he fully established its fraudulent
character.

A TRUE BILL,

Imagining there might
be something wanting in
our stock of mems suits -
some style or kind over
looked, or that possibly we
could with advantage make
some few additions to its al
ready greatassortment---we
went carefully through il
yesterday, and we found
we had, by actual count,
1876 styles of suits for men
That is to say, the intend
ing purchaser has 1875 kinds
from which to choose. Or
course, we have every size
in every kind. This state
ment will convey an idea
of the magnitude of our
stock of Mems thing
and therefore how easy it
is to be suited in our house
There is no necessity for
our salesmen to urge a
patron to buy against his
judgment ca custom very
much in vogue in olothing
houses where the stock ia
limited, because if one
kind does not please, there
are 1914 other distinct kind
from which tho patron may
be able to make his seleo-
tiop, and this vast assort-
ment embraces every grade
of goods we care to carry,
from the strong, well-made,
and serviceable working
suit at 81 to the finest dress
suit we know how to make,
costing S45; ready for i'm
mediate use, to put on and
wear home; and between
these two extremes are to
be found suits that are sure
to meet the requirements
of every taste and fit the
state of every mans pocket
book.

The Wilmington IN. C.) Messenger,
tDem. in an editorial which admits that
North Carolina is more than doubtful next
year, both on the state and national tickets,
says:
1t is enough for the present to say that the
Messenger, as 1t has ever done III the past, will
next year support the nominee Of the state
Democratic convention for governor, Just as it
will support the nominee of the national Dem
oeIatic convention for President.
This is the first Of the Democratic papers
asking its party to select Republicans as
candidates. The above language means
that or nothing.

The offerings OF bonds to the government

that the period fixed for the purchase OF

MARROW THE STREETS.

A stranger from the east, day Or
two ago, was doing what all strangers
who come here do-he was remarking
on the extraordinary width of the
streets. He thought they were pleasant
curiosities to look upon "but," said he,
what will you do when you come to
pave these roads 1t will cost more to
| lay pavement on so much territory
than the adjoining lots are worth" 1t
may well be asked, what are we to do
when it comes to paving the streets
That there should be some paving very
soon is conceded by everybody, but tie
suggestion of commencement strikes
terror into the hearts of property own
ers, as the actual beginning will strike
their pocket-books with desolation. The
fact is, our streets would be very pretty
for a country village where there was
little traffic and land was plentiful and
cheap; but they are entirely too vic
fol- a city. There is not only waste
of land, but the roads are so broad as
to preclude the possibility of making
them what city roads should be. Vari-
GUS plans have been proposed for over
coming the difficulty, as devoting space
in the centre to grass, trees, etc. but no
scheme yet suggested has met por
ular approval and been practicable.
Why would it not do to treat the mat
ter heroically at once, and by munich
pal ordinance or such other proceeding
as may be necessary, declare the streets
to be of such reasonable width as may
be deemed proper, and attach the sur
plus land on either side to the adjoining
lots at such price as may be
settled upon as fair and Just?
There are very few cities in the
world with streets more than
four rods wide. New York has but
one street which equals ours in width,
the others ranging from 100 feet down
to thirty feet. There is but one street
in San Francisco which is as wide as
ours, the others being from three to
five rods, as against the eight rod roads
OF Salt Lake. Philadelphia, Chicago
St. Louis, New Orleans and Boston
manage to get along very well With
streets from twenty-five feet to seventy
five feet in width, while ours are spread
over 1872 feet. It must also be borne in
mind that in all these cities the houses

tower from three to ten stories into the
air, and it is not likely that any one
here will think of running above four
our five stories for rom on the most
valuable streets for centuries to come.
With the exception of perhaps two
streets, crossing the city at right
angles, all our streets could be re
duced to, say 100 feet, without the
slightest inconvenience to traffic, but
with great benefit and advantage
in every respect, even in the
matter of appearance: Leaving the side
walks at their present width, the surface
to be paved or otherwise made pas
sable and presentable, would be about
So feet instead of nearly so feet, as now.
Salt Lake is destined to become a
populous inland city, but a century
hence her people, numerous as they
may be, will be complaining of wide
streets, and the impossibility of keeping
them in repair, unless we go to the relief
of ourselves and posterity by narrowing
the roads to the proportions of city
streets instead of retaining them of the
dimensions of ordinary city parks.

learn how to fight Indians, and that is
by fighting Indians.
